Some of these newer ones are less impressive. All movies after 2000, BEHIND THE SCENES EXCLUSIVE FOOTAGE:

I've always had a fascination with studio lots and soundstages. What happened to the iconic MGM Studios soundstages? Lorimar bought them out in 1986. Here's some photos of the iconic Metro Goldwyn Mayer sign being taken down with Lorimar already displaying its signage:

The studio lot is now home to Sony Pictures Entertainment, the backlots were torn down a long time ago before Lorimar's ownership.

Where did Bruce Lee and Jackie Chan shoot some of their most iconic movies?: At the Golden Studios (the Golden Havest studio) which were torn down by the Hong Kong government to make way for condominiums. Very sad it was never preserved.

Plaque on the door:

Practical effects are awesome.
It's almost a lost art in big budget Hollywood.

The final tower was CG in the end, although Nolan didn't know about it until after the film was finished.
